Tasting Blood (ON HOLD)

Chapter 11

Ella’s Pov

I still couldn’t sleep. I walked downstairs, I saw Mira standing there, with her back towards me.

“Hey, Mira, I can’t sleep” I admitted walking towards her. She turned around. Giving me an almost too friendly smile.

“how come?” she asked sweetly. I lifted up my shoulders.

“I don’t really know, just in thoughts I guess.” I said.

“you really should forget about the vampire thing” she stated. I looked up at her.

“I don’t think I can” I admitted.

“well you should!” she said sternly. I looked a bit shocked at her. Suddenly she pulled me into a hug. Well this was kind of awkward. I hugged her a little back. after like 3 minutes she didn’t pull away. I tried to struggle out her arms.

But she held me tighter. I could hear her breath getting faster. And I heard her take in my scent.

“Delicious” she whispered to herself. What the hell?

“Mira, can you let go of me?” I asked. She didn’t let go of me.

“you know Ella, I’m kind of hungry” she suddenly said letting go of me. I was getting scared. she is 89 and she is super strong! That’s not even possible.

“well, errrr, you errrr you want me to make you some food?” I stuttered fast. She laughed a little.

“that’s alright sweetie” she said. She looked into my eyes and I looked in her green eyes. Her lips lifted up a bit by her smiling.

Suddenly appearing fangs, sharp fangs, wait what? FANGS? Is she a vampire?

She smirked at me and I looked terrified. I started to back up when  she came closer to me. I looked behind me. and I started to run up the stairs.

I ran into my  room. Shutting the door fast behind me. I sat down in the corner of my room, bringing my knees to my chin and wrapping my arms around them. There was a soft knock on my door.

but I didn’t answer, well HELLO I’m not stupid. There was a knock again.

“sweetie, you can’t hide in there, if you don’t open this door I’ll just break it down you know.” Mira said in her sweet voice. But I didn’t think she was sweet anymore. NOT AT ALL. I didn’t answer.

“ELLA OPEN THIS DOOR” an angry voice called out. it was Mira, but she didn’t sound that sweet anymore. I stayed silence. Hoping she would just leave.

“Ella, I hear your heartbeat! I can smell your blood, I won’t leave till I taste it” she said inpatient. She IS a vampire, but her eyes, they didn’t change, and why would the boys do this to me? they did want me death, they just didn’t want to do it by themselves? There was another knock on the door.

“Ella, one last chance” she warned. I hugged my knees tighter and started sobbing more. This was it.

 The door flung open, appearing an 25 years old looking Mira, she wasn’t that ‘old lady’ anymore.  She smirked at me and licked her lips.

I pressed my back deeper into the wall. Tears  streamed down my face. She started walking towards me. slowly, making it all more dramatic. Her eyes were glowing, they were still green, but darker, and they were glowing, her fangs stood out.
